SMI driver fails because of low timeout values. Increasing the erase and write timeouts to 3 seconds
This is a huge timeout change. 2ms to 3000ms. If something goes wrong, it will seem like the board is hung. Is this ok?
2ms timeout itself was a mistake. 3 sec is OK. Offcourse, 3 secs are required only when something goes wrong
OK

This changes the function to wait at least 1ms even if timeout == 0. Why was the original logic changed?
Earlier a value of 2 was reading the status register only once. This I felt is more appropriate since the status register is read every ms and at least once.
OK
